Tuesdays with Dorie Are Back! Burnt Sugar Ice Cream.

Imagine, if you will, caramel just this side of burnt. Sweet, a slight hint of bitterness--you know that toasty flavor you get from browning something, right? Toasty, caramel...vanilla..Now imagine all the burnt sugary goodness blended into just the right about of cream and frozen.

Then let it start to turn just a little bit MORE golden (yes, as I was taking this picture, I was hearing: sugar goes from caramel to BURNT in seconds. And we are not talking the good burnt. We are talking the black, charcoal-tasting, burnt as dust burnt).

Next, work some magic with egg yolks. Slowly heat--DON'T STOP STIRRING! Heat it until it coats the back of a spoon without running (the finger test)..Chill. Freeze.

Who needs store bought anything? We have Dorie. We have burnt sugar ice cream. We have all the versions of the same over at Tuesdays with Dorie(Find the recipe here; Project Domestication got to pick the recipe; she gets to reprint it (with Dorie's permission, of course...)
